1. * |
Alif Lam Ra. These are the verses of the Book and (of) a Quran that makes (things) clear.
|
|
2. * |
Often will those who disbelieve wish that they had been Muslims.
|
|
3. * |
Leave them that they may eat and enjoy themselves and (that) hope may beguile them, for they will soon know.
|
|
4. * |
And never did We destroy a town but it had a term made known.
|
|
5. * |
No people can hasten on their doom nor can they postpone (it).
|
|
6. * |
And they say: O you to whom the Reminder has been revealed! you are most surely insane:
|
|
7. * |
Why do you not bring to us the angels if you are of the truthful ones?
|
|
8. * |
We do not send the angels but with truth, and then they would not be respited.
|
|
9. * |
Surely We have revealed the Reminder and We will most surely be its guardian.
|
|
10. * |
And certainly We sent (messengers) before you among the nations of yore.
|
|
11. * |
And there never came a messenger to them but they mocked him.
|
|
12. * |
Thus do We make it to enter into the hearts of the guilty;
|
|
13. * |
They do not believe in it, and indeed the example of the former people has already passed.
|
|
14. * |
And even if We open to them a gateway of heaven, so that they ascend into it all the while,
|
|
15. * |
They would certainly say: Only our eyes have been covered over, rather we are an enchanted people.
|
|
16. * |
And certainly We have made strongholds in the heaven and We have made it fair seeming to the beholders.
|
|
17. * |
And We guard it against every accursed Shaitan,
|
|
18. * |
But he who steals a hearing, so there follows him a visible flame.
|
|
19. * |
And the earth-- We have spread it forth and made in it firm mountains and caused to grow in it of every suitable thing.
|
|
20. * |
And We have made in it means of subsistence for you and for him for whom you are not the suppliers.
|
|
21. * |
And there is not a thing but with Us are the treasures of it, and We do not send it down but in a known measure.
|
|
22. * |
And We send the winds fertilizing, then send down water from the cloud so We give it to you to drink of, nor is it you who store it up.
|
|
23. * |
And most surely We bring to life and cause to die and We are the heirs.
|
|
24. * |
And certainly We know those of you who have gone before and We certainly know those who shall come later.
|
|
25. * |
And surely your Lord will gather them together; surely He is Wise, Knowing.
|
|
26. * |
And certainly We created man of clay that gives forth sound, of black mud fashioned in shape.
|
|
27. * |
And the jinn We created before, of intensely hot fire.
|
|
28. * |
And when your Lord said to the angels: Surely I am going to create a mortal of the essence of black mud fashioned in shape.
|
|
29. * |
So when I have made him complete and breathed into him of My spirit, fall down making obeisance to him.
|
|
30. * |
So the angels made obeisance, all of them together,
|
|
31. * |
But Iblis (did it not); he refused to be with those who made obeisance.
|
|
32. * |
He said: O Iblis! what excuse have you that you are not with those who make obeisance?
|
|
33. * |
He said: I am not such that I should make obeisance to a mortal whom Thou hast created of the essence of black mud fashioned in shape.
|
|
34. * |
He said: Then get out of it, for surely you are driven away:
|
|
35. * |
And surely on you is curse until the day of judgment.
|
|
36. * |
He said: My Lord! then respite me till the time when they are raised.
|
|
37. * |
He said: So surely you are of the respited ones
|
|
38. * |
Till the period of the time made known.
|
|
39. * |
He said: My Lord! because Thou hast made life evil to me, I will certainly make (evil) fair-seeming to them on earth, and I will certainly cause them all to deviate
|
|
40. * |
Except Thy servants from among them, the devoted ones.
|
|
41. * |
He said: This is a right way with Me:
|
|
42. * |
Surely. as regards My servants, you have no authority ,over them except those who follow you of the deviators.
|
|
43. * |
And surely Hell is the promised place of them all:
|
|
44. * |
It has seven gates; for every gate there shall be a separate party of them.
|
|
45. * |
Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in the midst of gardens and fountains:
|
|
46. * |
Enter them in peace, secure.
|
|
47. * |
And We will root out whatever of rancor is in their breasts-- (they shall be) as brethren, on raised couches, face to face.
|
|
48. * |
Toil shall not afflict them in it, nor shall they be ever ejected from it.
|
|
49. * |
Inform My servants that I am the Forgiving, the Merciful,
|
|
50. * |
And that My punishment-- that is the painful punishment.
|
|
51. * |
And inform them of the guests of Ibrahim:
|
|
52. * |
When they entered upon him, they said, Peace. He said: Surely we are afraid of you.
|
|
53. * |
They said: Be not afraid, surely we give you the good news of a boy, possessing knowledge.
|
|
54. * |
He said: Do you give me good news (of a son) when old age has come upon me?-- Of what then do you give me good news!
|
|
55. * |
They said: We give you good news with truth, therefore be not of the despairing.
|
|
56. * |
He said: And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord but the erring ones?
|
|
57. * |
He said: What is your business then, O messengers?
|
|
58. * |
They said: Surely we are sent towards a guilty people,
|
|
59. * |
Except Lut's followers: We will most surely deliver them all,
|
|
60. * |
Except his wife; We ordained that she shall surely be of those who remain behind.
|
|
61. * |
So when the messengers came to Lut's followers,
|
|
62. * |
He said: Surely you are an unknown people.
|
|
63. * |
They said: Nay, we have come to you with that about which they disputed.
|
|
64. * |
And we have come to you with the truth, and we are most surely truthful.
|
|
65. * |
Therefore go forth with your followers in a part of the night and yourself follow their rear, and let not any one of you turn round, and go forth whither you are commanded.
|
|
66. * |
And We revealed to him this decree, that the roots of these shall be cut off in the morning.
|
|
67. * |
And the people of the town came rejoicing.
|
|
68. * |
He said: Surely these are my guests, therefore do not disgrace me,
|
|
69. * |
And guard against (the punishment of) Allah and do not put me to shame.
|
|
70. * |
They said: Have we not forbidden you from (other) people?
|
|
71. * |
He said: These are my daughters, if you will do (aught).
|
|
72. * |
By your life! they were blindly wandering on in their intoxication.
|
|
73. * |
So the rumbling overtook them (while) entering upon the time of sunrise;
|
|
74. * |
Thus did We turn it upside down, and rained down upon them stones of what had been decreed.
|
|
75. * |
Surely in this are signs for those who examine.
|
|
76. * |
And surely it is on a road that still abides.
|
|
77. * |
Most surely there is a sign in this for the believers.
|
|
78. * |
And the dwellers of the thicket also were most surely unjust.
|
|
79. * |
So We inflicted retribution on them, and they are both, indeed, on an open road (still) pursued.
|
|
80. * |
And the dwellers of the Rock certainly rejected the messengers;
|
|
81. * |
And We gave them Our communications, but they turned aside from them;
|
|
82. * |
And they hewed houses in the mountains in security.
|
|
83. * |
So the rumbling overtook them in the morning;
|
|
84. * |
And what they earned did not avail them.
|
|
85. * |
And We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them two but in truth; and the hour is most surely coming, so turn away with kindly forgiveness.
|
|
86. * |
Surely your Lord is the Creator of all things, the Knowing.
|
|
87. * |
And certainly We have given you seven of the oft-repeated (verses) and the grand Quran.
|
|
88. * |
Do not strain your eyes after what We have given certain classes of them to enjoy, and do not grieve for them, and make yourself gentle to the believers.
|
|
89. * |
And say: Surely I am the plain warner.
|
|
90. * |
Like as We sent down on the dividers
|
|
91. * |
Those who made the Quran into shreds.
|
|
92. * |
So, by your Lord, We would most certainly question them all,
|
|
93. * |
As to what they did.
|
|
94. * |
Therefore declare openly what you are bidden and turn aside from the polytheists.
|
|
95. * |
Surely We will suffice you against the scoffers
|
|
96. * |
Those who set up another god with Allah; so they shall soon know.
|
|
97. * |
And surely We know that your breast straitens at what they say;
|
|
98. * |
Therefore celebrate the praise of your Lord, and be of those who make obeisance.
|
|
99. * |
And serve your Lord until there comes to you that which is certain.
